Dubbz Overview
Dubbz is on a mission to enhance how games are played, developed, and promoted. The Dubbz gaming platform serves as a hub for gamers, game developers, and gaming creators to connect, grow, and profit together.
For Gamers
All levels of gamers can earn an income by wagering on their 1v1 matches with friends across a broad portfolio including mainstream games (e.g., FIFA, Call of Duty, Rocket League), fresh takes on classic arcade games, and new indie games spanning web2 and web3.
You can also enter free and entry-fee tournaments for cash prizes, whether matching up 1v1 in bracket tournaments or climbing a leaderboard with the most wins or highest score.
And we know gaming is social. You can connect already with other Dubbz gamers on-site in the global chat or in our community Discord. Next, you'll be able to build your own gaming-specific social network and grow your personal brand on Dubbz Hub, launching Q3 2024.
For Game Developers
When you develop and launch a brand new game, the challenges can seem endless. Not only do you have to create an amazing experience for your ideal players, but you have to market and monetize the game to be successful.
Monetization
We partner with you directly to integrate monetization features into your game, like PvP wagering and paid tournaments to naturally generate revenue. No more intrusive ads, in-game upsells, and pay-to-play gimmicks. Players will also thank you for an honest way to earn based on their skills in your game, instead of feeling exploited just in order to play. They will also be more engaged, building a community of friends and rivals as they come back for the another rematch.

Marketing
We also know new games can often struggle with marketing and discoverability. To help you overcome this, we will connect you with gaming streamers and influencers (aka Creators) that have a proven track record and transparent profile on the Dubbz Hub. Think of it like an Upwork marketplace for game developers to find their ideal gaming influencers.
Beyond connecting you with these promoters, we promote you ourselves. Your game will be prominently featured on the Dubbz platform, including an initial marketing campaign announcing our partnership and sharing your game with the collective Dubbz audience of paying gamers (spanning social media posts, emails, blog articles, and live AMAs).
For Gaming Content Creators
Gaming content creators have many aliases — key opinion leaders (KOLs), influencers, streamers, ambassadors, etc. What they don't have is a reliable way to make money while growing a gaming community authentically, without disconnected ads and shilling.
Subscriptions
Dubbz Creators will have SocialFi profiles on the Dubbz Hub. Here, Creators can engage with their gaming friends and fans like any other social media "wall" with posts, comments, and reactions. Creators can also run exclusive events like tournaments, matches, gaming workshops, etc. through easy-to-use platform features.
When you launch your Creator profile, you also allow your fans and other Dubbz gamers to purchase a monthly subscription or Dubbz Card lifetime access pass.
So, what's in it for your paying subscribers?
Only your subscribers can access your private events, giving them an opportunity to game with you while growing their own personal brand / community by associating with yours. (Not to mention, they can earn by winning the matches and tournaments you host.)
Although anyone can see your public posts, only subscribers can engage with you (e.g., react, comment, repost). When you want to add exclusive value, you can chose to make posts private.
Importantly, your subscribers also share in your earnings on the platform from winning wagers, tournaments, etc. You can choose the percentage you want to share based on your growth and earning goals.
Dubbz Cards
Instead of a monthly subscription, the fans of Creators can alternatively purchase tradable Dubbz Cards to get lifetime access (as long as they hold the card).
Each time a Dubbz Card is purchased, the value of the card increases, making it an appreciating asset as your popularity grows. Speculators can also buy and sell the cards at any time for a profit, as we host the liquidity pool so traders never need to wait on a buyer or seller.
Get Sponsored
Creators don't need to dominate an esports league to get sponsored. On Dubbz, you have the opportunity to strike deals with new games you simply enjoy playing and sharing. As a Dubbz Creator, you can leverage both your following and position on the platform to get paid to:
stream gameplay and create content for Dubbz partner games
host sponsored tournaments and matches
Beyond sponsorships, you can earn an income by hosting your own tournaments and matches for an entry fee. Or, you can throw your own hat into the ring to win wagers and tournaments yourself.
Please note that as Dubbz continues to evolve, this document may also change. Details discussed throughout the whitepaper serve as an overview of the project’s current and future state and do not intend to capture the Dubbz project or vision in its entirety.
